Error with extension not properly connected to separate company

Posted on by bchelpme123 5

Hi there, 

I am installing an extension that I only want active in one company. However, when I try to use my other company where the extension is installed but not connected/active, I get this error on the pages that the extension touches. We can't connect with this other company since it is in a different country and the extension doesn't have localization support. How can I make it so that the extension will not limit activity in the other companies? Thanks.

    Hi, as far as I know there is no way. An environment is an independent database, if you install an extension in this environment, this extension is valid for all companies in this environment.
    Unless it is controlled during the development phase, such as adding a settings page to control whether the function is enabled. But it is not possible to be independent of the company and the extension.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks.

    Is there any way to not have the error show up? By in the development phase do you mean when the extension is being built?

    An extension is applied to all companies in that environment.

    If you want it to be applied to just one company, you need to specify a conditional logic on every code on your extension.

    You can add a boolean field to Company Information and use that as conditional.

    CompanyInformation.Get();

    if CompanyInformation.UseMyApp then

     doThis;
